The Thumbsavers Advance takes all of the features of the Thumbsavers Classic to a whole new level.

It is much more comfortable to wear, especially for shorter fingers.Used By Massage Therapists, Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists, Chiropractors, Athletic / Personal Trainers all over the world, Thumbsavers are great for Trigger Point Therapy, Muscle Stripping, all Massage Modalities Including Chair, Acupressure, Shiatsu, Self Care & more.The Thumbsavers Advance is an affordable massage ‘tool’ that assists any Health Care Practitioner who is utilizing their hands by providing much needed support. They also reduce the stress on your joints and wrists while performing deep tissue work.It provides the kind of sensitivity & mobility that separate them from other options that don’t allow you to ‘feel’ your client or have a direct ‘connection’ to them. Many tools on the market also require a great amount of force to be applied when holding them, and cause strain and fatigue over time.Technically, Thumbsavers can not be called a "tool" because your thumbs and fingers are actually inside them. You use your fingers in their natural state, and fatigued thumbs, fingers, and carpal tunnel like wrist pain will be no longer a problem. You can prolong your natural therapy career and protect your most valuable assets.Thumbsavers can be used interchangeably with thumbs, middle and index fingers, and on both hands.Message from Greg Polins, the developer of Thumbsavers Advance massage ‘tool’: ‘This is by far my best tool yet. A couple of years ago, this wasn’t possible. Through advanced mold engineering, you can now have the support you need for your joints while enjoying a much better interaction with your clients through the multi-depth tip. The Thumbsavers Advance is going to take treating clients while extending your career to a whole new level.’What Size Do I Need?
